The beginnings of George Clooney in Broadway, “Good Night and Good Luck”, were one of the sensations of the 2024-25 theater season, beating records at the box office and drawing public houses wishing to see the popular film star in a opportune drama on the importance of an independent press.
Now, the room will become much more widely available: CNN provides live broadcast of the penultimate performance, June 7 at 7 p.m. The performance will be preceded and followed by a coverage and a discussion on the show and the state of journalism.
“We plan to take the game on the road, to take him to London, and to take him to Paris,” said Clooney in an interview on Thursday, adding: “But we also thought that it would never be exactly what it is right now, with the same casting, and we thought it would be good to have a file.
“And then we thought, because the news ballots are all finished live, it is the perfect thing to try to create on live television, which is always exciting – there is no safety net, and it is a fun thing to do.”
Clooney said he expects the game to be available to broadcast after live broadcast, but that he does not yet know where. “This is what we are still working on at the moment,” he said. “The question is where it goes from here, and we had three different offers and we negotiate to find out what is the best position.”
